Hello, myfitnesspal members,

My name is Jason. Basically, I've been overweight since my college years (1995-99), and after seeing a recent photo of myself from a family get-together, I finally decided that enough is enough. I'm the father of 4-year-old twins (boy and girl) and a two-year-old daughter, and I feel that it's now time to lose weight and be a healthy example for my children. My wife recently found out about this site and joined up a few days ago and she has already lost two pounds after joining. So I thought, "Why not?"

I look forward to starting this journey with the rest of you and look forward to any support or tips you all may have. Best of luck to everyone!

Jason :happy:
